I don't often read poetry. I prefer it spoken. But that's exactly why I purchased Neil's book. The poem "OCD" was performed so well. I've watched it countless times. Enough so that I hear the cadence when reading the words in my own. I also enjoyed "Joey", "Enabling: A Love Song", and "I'm Sorry Your Kids Are Such Little Shits and that We Are in the Same Zen Garden". I still think written poetry just isn't for me, but I did like a bunch in this book.
